[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm thinking you might need to either try a different school district, or you may need to approach your job differently. I'm an elementary special education teacher[b] in a rather affluent suburb[/b] in the NY metro area, and my school day is 8 hours (max). There are many classroom teachers in my school who I know are in half hour before school starts, but they are out the door 10 minutes after the kids leave. As a teacher who works with multiple teachers in multiple classrooms, I have the benefit of seeing different approaches to the job in action. There's one younger teacher in my school who gets in 2 hours early each day and leaves an hour after. She gets (lovingly) teased about it. She's a good young teacher--but it's not like those extra 3 hours are are making a huge difference in the "final product." [/quote] This is the key, OP. [/quote]
